REQUIREMENTS CONTRACT This is a Requirements Contract and the County’s intent is to order from the Contractor all of the goods or services specified in the contract’s price schedule that are required to be purchased by the County. If the County urgently requires delivery of goods or services before the earliest date that delivery may be required under this contract, and if the contractor will not accept an order providing for accelerated delivery, the County may acquire the goods or services from another source. The County’s requirements in this contract are estimated and there is no commitment by the County to order any specified amount. If the estimated quantities are not achieved, this shall not be the basis for an equitable adjustment.
Federal Medicaid System Security Requirements Compliance Party shall provide a security plan, risk assessment, and security controls review document within three months of the start date of this Agreement (and update it annually thereafter) in order to support audit compliance with 45 CFR 95.621 subpart F, ADP System Security Requirements and Review Process.
Minimum Vendor License Requirements Vendor shall maintain, in current status, all federal, state, and local licenses, bonds and permits required for the operation of the business conducted by Vendor. Vendor shall remain fully informed of and in compliance with all ordinances and regulations pertaining to the lawful provision of goods or services under the TIPS Agreement. TIPS and TIPS Members reserve the right to stop work and/or cancel a TIPS Sale or terminate this or any TIPS Sale Supplemental Agreement involving Vendor if Vendor’s license(s) required to perform under this Agreement or under the specific TIPS Sale have expired, lapsed, are suspended or terminated subject to a 30‐day cure period unless prohibited by applicable statue or regulation.
Data Requirements • The data referred to in this document are encounter data – a record of health care services, health conditions and products delivered for Massachusetts Medicaid managed care beneficiaries. An encounter is defined as a visit with a unique set of services/procedures performed for an eligible recipient. Each service should be documented on a separate encounter claim detail line completed with all the data elements including date of service, revenue and/or procedure code and/or NDC number, units, and MCE payments/cost of care for a service or product. • All encounter claim information must be for the member identified on the claim by Medicaid ID. Claims must not be submitted with another member’s identification (e.g., xxxxxxx claims must not be submitted under the Mom’s ID). • All claims should reflect the final status of the claim on the date it is pulled from the MCE’s Data Warehouse. • For MassHealth, only the latest version of the claim line submitted to MassHealth is “active”. Previously submitted versions of claim lines get offset (no longer “active” with MassHealth) and payments are not netted. • An encounter is a fully adjudicated service (with all associated claim lines) where the MCE incurred the cost either through direct payment or sub-contracted payment. Generally, at least one line would be adjudicated as “paid”. All adjudicated claims must have a complete set of billing codes. There may also be fully adjudicated claims where the MCE did not incur a cost but would otherwise like to inform MassHealth of covered services provided to Enrollees/Members, such as for quality measure reporting (e.g., CPT category 2 codes for A1c lab tests and care/patient management). • All claim lines should be submitted for each Paid claim, including zero paid claim lines (e.g., bundled services paid at an encounter level and patient copays that exceeded the fee schedule). Denied lines should not be included in the Paid submission. Submit one encounter record/claim line for each service performed (i.e., if a claim consisted of five services or products, each service should have a separate encounter record). Pursuant to contract, an encounter record must be submitted for all covered services provided to all enrollees. Payment amounts must be greater than or equal to zero. There should not be negative payments, including on voided claim lines. • Records/services of the same encounter claim must be submitted with same claim number. There should not be more than one active claim number for the same encounter. All paid claim lines within an encounter must share the same active claim number. If there is a replacement claim with a new version of the claim number, all former claim lines must be replaced by the new claim number or be voided. The claim number, which creates the encounter, and all replacement encounters must retain the same billing provider ID or be completely voided. • Plans are expected to use current MassHealth MCE enrollment assignments to attribute Members to the MassHealth assigned MCE. The integrity of the family of claims should be maintained when submitting claims for multiple MCEs (ACOs/MCO). Entity PIDSL, New Member ID, and the claim number should be consistent across all lines of the same claim. • Data should conform to the Record Layout specified in Section 3.0 of this document. Any deviations from this format will result in claim line or file rejections. Each row in a submitted file should have a unique Claim Number + Suffix combination. • A feed should consist of new (Original) claims, Amendments, Replacements (a.k.a. Adjustments) and/or Voids. The replacements and voids should have a former claim number and former suffix to associate them with the claim + suffix they are voiding or replacing. See Section 2.0, Data Element Clarifications, for more information. • While processing a submission, MassHealth scans the files for the errors. Rejected records are sent back to the MCEs in error reports in a format of the input files with two additional columns to indicate an error code and the field with the error. • Unless otherwise directed or allowed by XxxxXxxxxx, all routine monthly encounter submissions must be successfully loaded to the MH DW on or before the last day of each month with corrected rejections successfully loaded within 5 business days of the subsequent month for that routine monthly encounter submission to be considered timely and included in downstream MassHealth processes. Routine monthly encounter submissions should contain claims with paid/transaction dates through the end of the previous month.
Minimum Shipping Requirements for TIPS Sales Vendor shall ship, deliver, or provide ordered goods and services within a commercially reasonable time after acceptance of the order. If a delay in delivery is anticipated, Vendor shall notify the TIPS Member as to why delivery is delayed and provide an updated estimated time for completion. The TIPS Member may cancel the order if the delay is not commercially acceptable or not consistent with the Supplemental Agreement applicable to the order.

FALSE STATEMENTS CONCERNING HIGHWAY PROJECTS T h i s p r o v i s i o n i s applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related subcontracts.
